Description

How to send a long text message using SMS {Method for transfer long message using Short Message Service}

The present invention relates to a short message service, and more particularly, to a method of transmitting a long text message using an SMS transmitted through a short message service (SMS) at one time even if a mobile terminal user wants to transmit a long text.

In general, when the user wants to send a text message, the number of characters in the message is allowed only within the number of characters allowed by the communication service provider.

Therefore, a long text message should be sent in several short sentences and the recipient number and reply number should be selected for each short text.

Hereinafter, a long message transmission method using SMS according to the prior art will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a flowchart illustrating a long message transmission using an SMS according to the prior art.

Referring to FIG. 1, a caller first selects a text message sending menu of a mobile terminal. (S10)

After the caller selects a text message sending menu of the mobile terminal (S10), the caller inputs the recipient number of the recipient to whom the long message is to be sent, and inputs the caller's reply number. (S11)

After inputting the recipient number and the reply number (S11), a text message is created. (S12)

Here, the text message writing length is less than 80 characters, the number of characters of the message is allowed only within the number of characters allowed by the communication service provider.

After creating the text message (S12), the created text message is sent to the input recipient number. (S13)

Then, after the text message is sent (S13), the transmission completion waits until the transmission is completed to the input recipient number. (S14)

Next, after the transmission completion wait (S14), it is determined whether the sender has a message to be additionally transmitted to the transmitted text message. (S15)

As a result of determining whether there is an additional message to be transmitted by the sender (S15), when the sender has an additional message to be transmitted, the sender repeats the above steps to create a text message to be additionally transmitted and transmits it to the recipient number.

In addition, when the sender determines whether there is an additional message to transmit (S15), when the sender does not have an additional message to be transmitted, the sender terminates the text message transmission.

As such, the long message transmission using the SMS of the prior art is transmitted only within the number of characters allowed by the operator of 80 characters or less, and therefore, the characters of 80 or more characters should be divided into several short texts, the menu selection process, the recipient number, and the reply. There is a disadvantage in that it requires an unreasonable task and waiting time such as entering a number and waiting time until completion of the character transmission.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems of the prior art, and provides a method for transmitting a long message using SMS that is suitable for unreasonable work and waste of waiting time by editing a long message at a time. It is to.

According to an aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, when the text message sending menu is selected, when the contents of the sending exceed a predetermined capacity, a character code of a length that the user wants to write is inserted into the internal memory by inserting a connection code into a unit block. And a character created by inserting a connection code into the unit block is divided into a plurality of short messages inserted with the connection code and sent to the receiver.

Preferably, the receiver receiving the sent short message checks whether the received short messages are connected by a connection code.

When the received short messages are connected by a connection code, the short messages are checked in the display window of the user terminal through the connection codes.

According to another feature of the present invention for achieving the above object, it is made by dividing a message and numbering the divided message whenever the text message sent exceeds a predetermined capacity.

Preferably, when the message is received, the message is stored in a buffer, and the message sequence is checked and assembled.

Hereinafter, the configuration and operation according to the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In the present invention, when dividing a message into a certain capacity unit, it is arbitrarily set to 80 bytes and will be described below. This capacity is not fixed and can be arbitrarily set.

Short message transmission and / or reception also use paging channels and traffic channels.

Figure 2a is a view showing the creation of a long message for transmitting a long message using the SMS according to the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 2A, a short message allowing message using a short message service is 80 characters, and a character length of a caller is 300 characters. X is a connection code indicating the end of a short message written in 80 characters, and Y is a connection code indicating the start of a short message written in 80 characters.

The long text of 300 characters written by the sender is processed into an 80-character short text allowed by the short message service, and the 80-character short text processing is made from the first 1 to 80 characters, and then the connection code X1 indicating the end of the short message is short. Connected to the connection code Y1 indicating the start of the message, and 81 to 160 characters of the Y1 connected to the 80 characters are written, and then the connection code X2 indicating the end of the short message is displayed again.

Thus, in the same manner as described above, the X3 connection code, which is written up to 160 characters and the X2 connection code is connected with the Y2 connection code, and the 161 to 240 characters are written to indicate the end, the Y3 connection code, which starts with 241 characters, is connected to 300 The palm of the hand is written.

In this case, when the character capacity allowed by the communication service provider is exceeded using the connection code, the length of the user block is inserted by inserting the connection code as described above at the end and the beginning of the connected unit blocks. Write the character of.

FIG. 2B is a diagram illustrating short message division into a long message created in FIG. 2A.

FIG. 2B shows the 300-character long message created in FIG. 2A divided into short messages, divided into block units, and splits the connection code connected to the X1 and Y1 blocks by short 1 to 80 characters. Characters are divided into Block 2, Short 161 to 240 characters, Block 3, Short 241 to 300 characters, and Block 4.

FIG. 2C is a diagram illustrating transmission of the short messages divided in FIG. 2B according to a writing order.

FIG. 2C illustrates block 1, block 2, block 3, and block 4 divided in FIG. 2B by using a traffic channel from a block 1 to block 4 in order of creation.

On the other hand, if a short message allowed up to 80 characters is divided into 80 blocks of 40 English alphabets or 80 numerals in a block unit as described above, the short message is transmitted to the paging channel.

3A is a diagram illustrating reception of short messages sent in FIG. 2C.

3a confirms whether a message having a connection code sent from FIG. 2c is connected with a connection code, and if the message is connected with the connection code, first receives block 1, and then blocks 2, 3, and 4 It is received in order of connection code number.

FIG. 3B is a diagram illustrating a long text by connecting the short messages received in FIG. 3A.

3B is a block unit message divided into a plurality of short messages by combining blocks 1, 2, 3, and 4 received in FIG. 3A with the connected connection codes. Confirm by text message.

4 is a flowchart illustrating an originating process for transmitting a long message using SMS according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, first, it is checked whether the data size is 80 bytes or more. (S20)

As a result of checking whether the size of the data is 80 bytes or more (S20), when the data is 80 bytes or more, the 80 or more bytes are segmented into 80 bytes and divided into block units. (S21)

Then, the blocks are divided into 80 bytes and numbered. (S22)

For example, if the data is 200 bytes of Hangul, the number of 80-byte blocks from 1 to 40 characters in number 1, 41-80 characters in 80-byte blocks is number 2, and from 81 to 100 characters. 40 bytes are numbered 3.

After transmission in the order of the number of blocks (S23), it is checked whether all of them have been transmitted. (S24)

As a result of confirming that all data in the block unit is transmitted (S23), when all blocks are transmitted, the process ends. When all blocks are not transmitted, the above process is repeated.

On the other hand, as a result of confirming that the size of the data is 80 bytes or more (S20), if the data is 80 bytes or less, it is immediately sent to the receiver without performing the segmentation (S21) or numbering step 22. .

5 is a flowchart illustrating a receiving process for transmitting a long message using SMS according to a second embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 5. First, the short message type is checked whether the received data is received in units of blocks. (S30)

As a result of checking the received short message type (S30), if the received short message is a received message in units of blocks, the short message is stored in a buffer. (S31)

After storing the short message in units of blocks in a buffer (S31), the number order of the short messages in units of blocks is checked. (S32)

After checking the short message number order in units of blocks (S32), it is determined whether the short message number order in units of blocks is the last. (S33)

As a result of determining the last order (S33), if the identifier of the block unit is the last sequence, the block is assembled. (S34)

After the assembly (S34), the short message block is stored (S36), and the reception of the short message in the block unit ends. (S35)

As described above, the present invention completes the transmission of the message in a single operation by creating a message having a length that the user wants to transmit, which is not obtained by the one-time transmission character capacity limited by the communication service provider when the long text message is transmitted. Therefore, there is an advantage that does not require unreasonable work and waiting time.

Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the present invention.

Therefore, the technical scope of the present invention should not be limited to the contents described in the examples, but should be defined by the claims.
